Sell or keep

Post by waz » Sun Nov 01, 2015 7:46 pm

I have not used the bike much this year and keep thinking of selling it so someone else can enjoy it. But, I took it out yesterday for a bimmble down the country lanes and thought do I really want to sell it? It was great just rolling along, no presure stop where you can't with a car and just taking in the view. So keep or sell? keep I think.

Keep Defoe, cost next to nothing to keep and own and if looked after will last a lifetime.

I had to do a 2 mile journey today.
I ended up doing 10 as I was enjoying "that" C90 feeling.
I'm Luv'in it!...

...and just paid £136 for the "Full-Monty" insurance and breakdown coverage. :D

Do you have a Loncin as well, or a loncin engine in the C90?

I use my Innova all the time...The C90 was OK, but it wasn't so effortless in terms of use and maintenance. I couldn't get past the half assed lights and brakes on the C90 and it was a hard work dealing with traffic coming up behind as well as what is in front.

I like old kit, but only if it still fits.

So have things changed or do you not use the C90 instead for a more practical reason...
